        if i didnt have a roommate, i would before and after a shower -- nm - Guy Jul 16, 12:35 1
        
        After I get, but why before? -- nm - Spawn Jul 16, 12:35

Put 'em on hold or send 'em to voicemail if a live person needs help. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jul 16, 12:05 12
- Is it wrong of me to think the opposite? The live person is there already, they can obviously wait. We don't know how busy the phone person is - con_carne Jul 16, 12:08 4
  - It's right from the business standpoint, but not from the customer standpoint. - pmb Jul 16, 12:12
  - Depends on the business. If you are offering services only, yeah you probably want the phone person to - TWuG Jul 16, 12:10 2
    - We want to encourage calling & internet rather than showing up, IMO. It's more efficient for all concerned & better for the planet... -- nm - con_carne Jul 16, 12:12 1
      - Sorry, brick and mortar aren't set up to take orders over the phone. They exist to sell products to customers - TWuG Jul 16, 12:14
- In the middle of helping them? Say it's a reference question that's taking 4 minutes. Should I interrupt the conversation 2 minutes in to help - mara Jul 16, 12:08 6
  - Yes. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jul 16, 12:19
  - can you set a policy like "get to the person in front of you within two minutes"? - TFox Jul 16, 12:10
  - Also, keep in mine that we have no reason to prefer that people physically come to the library to ask a question. In fact, in many ways it's better to - mara Jul 16, 12:09 3
    - So, libraries prefer that nobody actually goes there? -- nm - Spawn Jul 16, 12:10 2
      - That b*tch would be perfectly happy if she could play on her computer all day long! - Steve114 si Jul 16, 12:12
      - No, that's not our preference. -- nm - mara Jul 16, 12:11
I am starting to understand why the big debate exists about which is better, wawa or sheetz. wawa pretzels kick ass, but sheetz pb cookies - safari for windows *loves* mandy lane Jul 16, 12:05 10
- sheetz has badass touchscreen ordering things. i've never been to a wawa though. -- nm - TFox Jul 16, 12:08 5
  - wawa had that before sheetz. I might get to go to wawa tonight. pretty exciting. -- nm - safari for windows *loves* mandy lane Jul 16, 12:10 4
    - my only sheetz experience in rural PA blew my mind. "how do you have this and i don't?! -- nm - TFox Jul 16, 12:11 3
      - when was this? you should see the new sheetz. they're like amusement parks. -- nm - safari for windows *loves* mandy lane Jul 16, 12:15 2
        
        last summer. -- nm - TFox Jul 16, 12:16 1
        
        yeah, might have been a new one. -- nm - safari for windows *loves* mandy lane Jul 16, 12:17
- I just wish we had a Sheetz somewhere in our area. Seem to only been in more rural areas for some reason. Sheetz MTO is great. -- nm - Don Homer Jul 16, 12:06 3
  - Do you consider Fredneck rural? (There are at least 3 sheets in the local area that I can recall.) -- nm - kelly Jul 16, 12:22 1
    - (Sheetz) -- nm - kelly Jul 16, 12:25
  - the sheetz by work has MTO. maybe I'll go there next week sometime, - safari for windows *loves* mandy lane Jul 16, 12:08
doesn't my golf tournament on Sat morning look like it will be fun?! -- (link) - TFox Jul 16, 12:03 11
- Are you guys still getting more rain than sun up there? Or has it at least been nice for the last few weeks? -- nm - kelly Jul 16, 12:05 1
  - it has been less insane than june was, but i still haven't pulled the a/c out of the basement. -- nm - TFox Jul 16, 12:09
- You should try the new gloves made especially for wet weather. The wetter they get, the more it increases their grip. -- nm - Loyola Jul 16, 12:05 7
  - oh, i care not for my golf score. i am worried about no-shows/no-pays that torpedo my fundraiser. -- nm - TFox Jul 16, 12:08 3
    - Ah ok. Here they run those type of things like; submit a team of 4, means you owe the organiser the money, regardless of whether you show or not. - Loyola Jul 16, 12:11 2
      - that is how it should work in theory. how it will work in practice? with my goofball friends? anyone's guess. - TFox Jul 16, 12:12 1
        
        Yeah true enough. -- nm - Loyola Jul 16, 12:13
  - Why did they get invented? There's no rain in space -- nm - Roger More Jul 16, 12:06 1
    - Probably so you could use an uzi when it's raining. -- nm - Loyola Jul 16, 12:08
  - "I... *can't*... let... go...." -- nm - TFox in the rain Jul 16, 12:06
- That sucks. - Krusty Jul 16, 12:04
Ninja Cat will just take a damn Emmy. -- nm - Reagen Jul 16, 12:02 1

How about Tom Watson. -- nm - Loyola Jul 16, 11:59
It's a little known fact that the orignal Apollo capsules had extending stop signs with flashing lights. -- nm - Ender Jul 16, 11:59 3

  - I like the tease of the tat girl at the end. And the smirk on the guys face over the shoulder of one of the girls they are talking to. -- nm - Spawn Jul 16, 12:02 1
    - Yeah, she looked hot. -- nm - TWuG Jul 16, 12:04

  - Nudity is natural, Jack. Not every nude event must be sexual. - TWuG Jul 16, 12:03
  - So? Nudity doesn't necessarily have to be sexual in nature. -- nm - Don Homer Jul 16, 12:02 3
    - [deleted] 2
      - "How's the nudity secret?" "Because we're naked UNDER OUR CLOTHES!!!" -- nm - TWuG Jul 16, 12:07 1
